> ValidateRecord Prints Array Paths in Confusing Way
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-7636
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7636
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.11.4
> Reporter: Eric Secules
> Priority: Major
>
> When there is a avro Validation Error in an element of a JSON array the array
> index is placed before the array's name in the path. For example if the input
> JSON was this:
> {code:java}
> {
> "myArray": [
> {
> "myValue": null
> }
> ]
> }
> {code}
> and "myValue" was required
> the validation error would be:
>
> {code:java}
> {
> "fieldName" : "[0]/myArray/myValue",
> "inputValue" : null,
> "explanation" : "Field is required",
> "type" : "MISSING_FIELD"
> }
> {code}
> It would make more sense if the array index was after the array field name
> like so. Placing the array index before the array doesn't make any sense to
> me.
> {code:java}
> {
> "fieldName" : "/myArray[0]/myValue",
> "inputValue" : null,
> "explanation" : "Field is required",
> "type" : "MISSING_FIELD"
> }
> {code}
> or if the field name was made using JSONPath syntax like:
> {code:java}
> {
> "fieldName" : "$.myArray[0].myValue",
> "inputValue" : null,
> "explanation" : "Field is required",
> "type" : "MISSING_FIELD"
> }
> {code}
>
